Not religious doesn't necessarily mean atheist

What there is no evidence for is witchcraft.


Or maybe there is evidence of self proclaimed witches practicing a craft but there is no evidence of it having any effect on anything.

See the bolded. You consider astrology to fall within that category, right?


I think what you mean to say is that people who lack a religion are not necessarily skeptically inclined .. and I'm inclined to agree with you.  I also agree that we don't get many of those here.  Was there any other implication you were wanted to draw from that?
